The highly anticipated return of former ONE bantamweight Muay Thai world title challenger Liam Harrison was pushed back to September 6 at ONE 168: Denver, where he will face fellow legend Seksan Or Kwanmuang inside the Ball Arena in Colorado.

Ahead of their catchweight Muay Thai match, Harrison has been putting in the work on the pads, as seen in his recent Instagram post. It was published by ONE Championship, which wrote the caption:

""Hitman" gets right back into it 💯 Can Liam Harrison outstrike Seksan on September 6 at ONE 168: Denver? 👊 @liambadco"

The British combat superstar was punishing the pads with his powerful strikes and combinations. He aims to land these against the 35-year-old Thai icon to return to the win column after suffering a first-round TKO loss to Nong-O Hama in his last taste of action in August 2022.

Harrison also suffered a brutal knee injury in his fight against Nong-O, forcing him to the sidelines for nearly two years to recover.

Because of the majestic form that Harrison has shown in the video, fans are hyped to see his return, as platform users @reece.herdman, @etngszn, @tom_da_bomb_86, and @haddiouiimranel complimented him with comments:

"Liam Harrison makes me proud to be British what a champion and true warrior"
"Cannot wait to see @liambadco back in the ring 🔥🔥🔥"
"If @liambadco outstrike/outpoint whatever it takes, he must be given a title shot against Haggerty in the UK after that. Thailand vs UK/IRL for the remainder of the card"
"Put on a great fight man i was gonna die if i had to fight that monster."

Liam Harrison's wish to fight Seksan was granted by ONE Championship in likely his last professional bout

Harrison has been calling his shots against Seksan since he was signed by the world's largest martial arts organization in early 2023. According to him, it would be an honor to fight a fellow legend of the sport.

Also, he has hinted multiple times that his showdown with 'The Man Who Yields To No One' might be his swan song before he finally hangs up the gloves for good.

ONE 168: Denver is ONE Championship's second live event in the United States. Tickets for the card are available at Ticketmaster.
